The Role of A School Counselor

School counselors design and deliver school counseling programs that improve student outcomes.

They lead, advocate and collaborate to promote equity and access for all students by connecting

their school counseling program to the school’s academic mission and school improvement plan.

They uphold the ethical and professional standards of ASCA and promote the development of the

school counseling program based on the following areas of the ASCA National Model: define, deliver,

manage and assess.

This year’s focus:

PAYS SURVEY

12 of 19

About the PAYS

The PAYS (Pennsylvania Youth Survey) is a biennial survey given to students in grades 6th, 8th, 10th, and 12th.
The survey collects information on mental health and youth attitudes and behaviors towards alcohol, tobacco, other drug use, and behavior problems.
Questions are asked in four domains: Community, School, Family, and Peer/Individual

13 of 19

Discussion:

How to use data from the PAYS SURVEY to strengthen our school and community?

Which data area do you think is most important for us to focus on as a School Counseling department?

Initial Ideas from September

Service Fair: Students could learn about opportunities to assist those less fortunate (fostering acts of kindness)

Peer groups: Power of positive and negative influence

Role of social media and technology use

Idea that “Hurt people hurt people (or themselves)”

Lessons promoting respect of differences and acceptance (Restorative Practices)

Use of Social Emotional Learning

Culture of Conewago Valley

The key to SEL, Trauma Informed Care, Cultural Competency, Restorative Practices, and a healthy school community is the message that:

You are SAFE

You are HEARD

You are VALUED.

You belong here.
